The Beaches have released their debut self titled EP. This album really pays homage to the 60's style band that were out at the time. It has a great sound and being this band consists of all young females, it is quite the feat. They have a similar sound to that of Janis Joplin and those alike at the time. They have done a really good job on this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded very well while still having a bit of that 60's roughness to it. The instrumentation is pretty decent for the age of the band, really surprises you. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals are done very well. The singer can belt out the songs and rock with the best of them. The vocals are nice and clear as well, so you can tell every word. With the lyrics, they go on with that rock lifestyle in the song loner, while also talking about relationships and being kids. These are a bit of the typical topics bands target, but they do a great job on them here. If you are looking for a single to this album, give the song "Loner" your attention as it is the best song on the album and is a real rock song that really gets the album going. The Beaches have a really great debut here that shows this band has promise and could really make it in this industry. We hope they continue to go out and make killer albums like this. Now they just need to tour more if they can. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
